MANY of us have a favourite Christmas present. One that sticks in our mind and brings back special childhood memories. Perhaps it was something you dearly wanted and, full of anticipation, scribbled on your list for Father Christmas. Or maybe it was a gift that came as a real surprise and has stayed with you ever since. We asked our readers to tell us about their best-ever childhood present and here are some more of your responses: Gary Scott: “My wife says it’s the electronic battleships game I bought her this year. It was a surprise present. She wanted it in the 80s as a young girl but got a different one. So I found one, in its original box, and got it for her.”

WHAT was the best toy or present you ever received as a child at Christmas? That was the question we asked our readers and it clearly struck a chord with many of you, rekindling fond memories of a special time in your life. We received dozens of responses, ranging from teddies and dolls to bikes and train sets. Here are some of our favourites: Anne Bullard: A showjumping set. It came in a big box, had a horse with posable legs, a doll with riding clothes and little accessories like brushes and jumps. My friend had one and I really hoped I d get one for Christmas. I still remember the feeling when I opened it.
